Field notes
The instructions walk through connecting AirPods, choosing a control mode, calibrating head movement, and selecting an action input. The current download is v0.8.7 for Apple Silicon Macs running macOS 14 or later, while the page labels head tracking beta. It also warns that macOS may block the app because it is not yet notarized, and links to installation guidance and a SHA-256 check.
